About two years ago, I was getting ready to purchase an 03 Mach 1. I live in the Northeast and had no luck finding a dealer that work with me on price. I finally decided to save a boat load of $$$ and buy a GT. I found this GT used with 11k miles on it and got it for a great price.

After buying the car, I still wanted the styling ques that the Mach 1 had. After two years of wheeling and dealing, I've built a one of Mullitt 1...

I paid $16K for the car. After buying the new parts and selling the parts off the car, I have an additional 5K in it. It's a real nice car for $21K. Here an interior pic...

That's the way to do it. Great job!!! Where did you get the brakes and seats at?

xxl2ockl3ottomxx, that's a keyless entry keypad. It's a Ford part that is programmed with your remotes and allows you access to the car by entering a code.

mustangfun101, A friend of mine worked at a Ford dealer parts counter and was able to get me parts at dealers cost. I was able to buy the complete Bullitt brake and suspension setup for around $1,000. That gave me four rotors and calipers, struts, shocks, springs and sway bars. The seats came from eBay. They cost me $1,000 shipped to my door. I sold my original seats for $650, so the net cost was $350.

I'd like just the brakes, it looks nice. Sorry I missed out on the seats, I'm looking for some. I'll keep an eye out. Thanks for the info.

Not as far as I know, I think it is a part off the Crown Vic / Grand Marquess,


Nice car mate, but I think I would have stayed with the remoted key fob rather than the code panel.....

Looks great! I'm glad you didn't slap Mach 1 badges all over it. Instead, it still is badged as a GT, but has all of the visual charm of a Mach 1.

The keypad is an addition to the keyfobs. The factory keyless entry sees it as an additional keyfob. I've had a number of Tbirds that have the factory keypad and really missed it on the Mustang. Ford came out with this in the accessory catalog. It glues to the door and is programmed as an additional keyfob. Takes less than 5 minutes to enable and mount it.

There's no way I'd badge it as a Mach 1. I'm going after the look of a 69 R code Mustang GT.

Thanks everyone for your comments.
